How result slide detect which result variable to use
Hi,
I found out that if my variables box list contains a few results variable such as
- Results.PassPercent
- Results.PassPoints
- Results.ScorePercent
- Results.ScorePoints
- Results1.PassPercent
- Results1.PassPoints
- Results1.ScorePercent
- Results1.ScorePoints
If i apply those variables with Results1.... at the beginning to my 1st inserted result, the score did not show after completing quiz- all correct.
It is as if:
- default Results.ScorePercent belongs to 1st result slide created
- Results1.ScorePercent belongs to 2nd result slide created
- Results2.ScorePercent belongs to 3rd result slide created
- etc
So what if I have multiple result slide created which I did not know which was created 1st and some were deleted, and I apply any of the variable versions to the result slide, but it does not work.
I am curious to know how each of the result slide picks up which variable to use and to show the score. Is there a setting which I can see visually so that I know which variable to match with the result slide?
Thanks!

Hey there... when I add result slides it is not changing the %Results.ScorePercent%%. So I have three result slides on three different scenes with the same token. :/
Is that supposed to be correct?

Hi Jessica
when you add a results slide SL automatically creates the 4 associated variables
- Results.PassPercent
- Results.PassPoints
- Results.ScorePercent
- Results.ScorePoints
When you add another result slide the next set of variables created will be tagged with a number e.g. 1, 2, 3
- Results1.PassPercent
- Results1.PassPoints
- Results1.ScorePercent
- Results1.ScorePoints
If you are referring to the same variable on multiple result slides and expecting a different result it isn't going to work.

Hi Wendy!
That is what I thought... which is weird because I was using one of the templates from the content library and it was just using the same variable instead of creating new ones. I had to go in and create a generic result slide and modify it to the look and feel I wanted.

Hi Jessica
I think that issue has been posted before about a CL template - can you let the Articulate team know which template it was so they can test it out.
You've done the right thing creating a generic to generate the new variables - good luck with your project!
Hi Jessica!
Thanks for giving us a heads up on this. Like Wendy said, we have seen this issue pop up in the forums before. What content library templates did you use? We're working with the team on this, and I'd like to add your experience to the report.

Hi Alyssa,
I was using the Flow template.
Thanks,

Thanks, Jessica. I did a quick test with the Flow template, and I'm seeing the same thing you're seeing. Thanks for reaching out to us about this, and I'll update this thread as soon as I have more information!

Hi Alyssa,
I found the same thing happening with the Vision and Focus templates.
Thanks for letting us know, Gary, and I'm really sorry this is slowing you down.
Until we have a fix, you'll want to use basic graded results slides instead of templates from the content library. You can certainly copy/paste the slide objects from the template slides to the basic slides so they will match the style of the rest of your course.
Great news! Another update for Articulate 360 is now available. It includes a few important fixes and new features that you'll see in the release notes here.
The item you may be interested in is:
Quizzes weren't scored correctly when the same Content Library result slide was added to a course more than once. Now Storyline asks to create a new set of variables each time you insert the same result slide, resolving the conflict.
Launch the Articulate 360 desktop app on your computer and click the Update button for each application. Details here.
Please let us know if you have any questions, either here or by reaching out to our Support Engineers directly.

Hello all :)
I'm currently stuck with a similar problem.
The slide contains the following tags:
%Results.ScorePercent%%
%Results.PassPercent%%
For some reason, when I click 'preview this slide', it only displays the same text instead of picking values assigned/scored...
Could anyone please guide me where I might be going wrong?
I'm working on the translation file. The source file has the same problem (I presume the problem was inherited from the source).
Thanks for your attention and advice. - MariaCSStaff
Hello, Prabhath.
Take a look at the built-in variables in your .story file to confirm those were created:

If they are not showing on that window, you might need to recreate them with a Results slide.
Feel free to share your .story file here or through a support case, and we're happy to help!

Hi Maria,
Thanks so much for your suggestions.
I tried following your instructions and it seems like the slide I'm working on has problems.
I can't seem to find some of the variables you shared in your screenshot...I tried looking into 'Built-In' variables too, but I can't find 'Results... PassPercent, PassPoints, ScorePercent, ScorePoints there... (they were just absent)
I'm however able to find it when I try adding a new 'Results Slide' :)
The problem is, due to my limited expertise, I don't seem to know the way to copy slide format/colour schemes to match with the original (that has the problem).
Any idea if there is an easier way to clone/copy the remaining elements to match with the original? :)
Cheers,

Hi Maria,
I have an update to share :)
I came across this post which helped me fix the problem I was experiencing with the results slide..
Apparently, duplicating the Results slide resets some of those missing variables and makes it functional.
Thanks to everyone who spared their valuable time to help me find a resolution.
I sincerely appreciate your support.
Cheers!
